1. On Deities

VI. Old Age — SN1.59: A Partner

1“What is a person’s partner?
What instructs them?
Enjoying what is a mortal
released from all suffering?”

2“Faith is a person’s partner.
Wisdom instructs them.
Delighting in extinguishment a mortal
is released from all suffering.”

1"Kiṁsu dutiyā purisassa hoti,
Kiṁsu cenaṁ pasāsati;
Kissa cābhirato macco,
Sabbadukkhā pamuccatī"ti.

2"Saddhā dutiyā purisassa hoti,
Paññā cenaṁ pasāsati;
Nibbānābhirato macco,
Sabbadukkhā pamuccatī"ti.
